[via press release from FOX]

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY FROM "THE SIMPSONS" BART, LISA AND MAGGIE: START COUNTING YOUR D'OH! ONLY SEVEN DAYS LEFT UNTIL FATHER'S DAY!

With Father's Day just around the corner, FOX asked one of television's favorite dads, Homer J. Simpson, what's on his wish list this year �

HOMER SIMPSON'S FATHER'S DAY WISHES

1. French fries made of onion rings.

2. A time machine full of beer.

3. Not to have to see my father on Father's Day.

4. For someone to take "cool ranch" flavor to the next level.

5. For Marge not to be mad at me because I didn't get her anything for Mother's Day.

A devoted husband, Homer leaves his wife with few complaints. When pressed, however, Marge did once acknowledge to a marriage counselor that Homer "forgets birthdays, anniversaries, holidays (both religious and secular), chews with his mouth open, hangs out at a seedy bar with bums and lowlifes, blows his nose in the towels and puts them back in the middle, and scratches himself with his keys." Despite these few foibles, Homer loves his family, and he'll do just about anything to prove it -- even if that means making himself look foolish.

Sometimes frustrated at being fat and bald, Homer enjoys flashbacks now and again, which show him fat with a full head of hair. Two things, though, always remain constant for Homer, no matter what happens to him: his happy-go-lucky nature and his love for Marge and his kids.
